The boy was crossing Sunset Boulevard in the crosswalk at Yorba Street when he was struck by a car around 6:15 p.m., said police Sgt. Danielle Newman, a department spokeswoman.

The victim, whose identity has not been released, suffered non-life threatening injuries to his head and lower body and was taken to San Francisco General Hospital for treatment.

The driver, who was cited, stayed on the scene and was cooperative, according to police.

The intersection was the scene of a deadly collision Feb. 4. Isaak Berenzon, 78, of San Francisco, was walking east across Sunset in or near the crosswalk when a southbound burgundy Toyota Corolla struck and killed him, police said.

Though the intersection is equipped with flashing yellow lights that warn drivers when pedestrians are present, residents who live in the area say crossing Sunset Boulevard is a risky endeavor.

“This is a terrible place to cross,” Elyse Aylward, who lives two blocks away, said after the Feb. 4 accident. “I’m surprised that when they put in the pedestrian lights they didn’t just put in a signal. People fly along here. The speed limit is 35, but people are usually doing closer to 50.”
